Chapter 1383: The Battle of Peixian (2)
Wu Zheng was looking at Lu Zhiyu at this time, "What's the matter, are you blaming the king for not informing you in advance?" ”
"Don't dare. The last general just thought, since the prince is in his chest...... You don't need to put your beak at the end, right? ”
Wu Zhengzheng said: "The battlefield is changing rapidly, and the battle situation yesterday and today will be different, maybe the previous deployment of this king will be invalid at this time?" ”
Lu Zhiyu was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly smiled: "Can't!" The prince is wise and martial, how can there be something unexpected? ”
Wu Zheng nodded to Lu Zhiyu, "If you don't learn, you will learn from Ma Yaocao...... you will be a sycophant!" ”
Lu Zhiyu smiled, but his heart was bitter, now that King Wu's military strength is growing stronger and stronger, he can be described as strong soldiers and fierce generals around him, he was originally halfway to take refuge, and if he didn't take advantage of this opportunity to get along with Wu Dynasty and learn the ability to flatter, wouldn't he be increasingly alienated?
When the battle came to this, nearly half of his Wu Songwei casualties, the general's mansion was exhausted, and there were more monks and less porridge, who knows if he could replenish the troops in time.
Now everyone knows that Wu Zheng's real lineage is the First Army, and the original Lihaiwei, which was reorganized into Jinhuawei, really has to have a year and a half to replenish new soldiers, and Wu Songwei is marginalized.
Although he is not good at flattery, Kelu Zhiyu wanted to try, but he didn't want to, so he showed a little bit and was exposed by Wu Zheng.
Wu Zheng naturally couldn't think of these twists and turns, and his attention was all focused on the enemy formation outside the city at this time.
It's not that there is no way to break the enemy, but Wu Zheng "learned" the lesson of the Battle of Feiyun Bridge, and he fell in love with the thousand war horses.
Although the Northern Expeditionary Army did not allow for conditions, it did not form cavalry.
But don't send it to the door, God won't allow it.
Of course, Wu Zheng's careful thinking is also complicated, the brother-in-law is back, and there is no vacancy in the commanders of the guards, just imagine, you can't let Qian Qiaogong be demoted to use it.
Qian Qiaogong served as a deputy commander under his uncle (Qian Sudian) two years ago, and now that he has returned, if he really demotes his rank, he has confirmed the rumors that Qian Qiaogong is "a traitor", which is obviously inappropriate, Wu Zheng is afraid that he will be patted on the neck by Qian Sule's old man when he goes back.
Therefore, Wu Zheng was stimulated by the injured horse on the Feiyun Bridge, and this time he left a lot of thoughts, since Qian Qiaogong is good at training and commanding cavalry, it is better to fulfill him, fortunately, Qian Qiaogong has also brought a lot of war horses from Sizhou, plus these in front of him, he should be able to form a pro-guard cavalry battalion.
"Lord Wang, why don't you send a team of people first to lure the enemy to try?" Lu Zhiyu pondered for a long time, and then came up with such a sentence.
Wu Zheng was stunned for a moment, and suddenly laughed: "Okay, just do as you say." ”
Lu Zhiyu immediately ordered, two battalions and three lines, crossed forward to lure the enemy.
It is a pity that until the three hundred steps are entered, the Qing army is motionless.
Don't go in again, if you go in again, the enemy will not be able to retreat as soon as the enemy riders move.
Lu Zhiyu had no choice but to order the withdrawal of troops, and ran to Wu Zheng in a daze, "Lord Wang, the Tartar is obedient and refuses to move." ”
Wu Zheng thought for a while and said, "Then bombard." ”
Lu Zhiyu said with a bitter face: "There are not many six-pounder cannon shells, in the opinion of the general, it is better to save it for the siege of the city...... It can also reduce some casualties. ”
Wu Zheng said angrily: "Then just watch, stalemate with the enemy until the arrival of Yanzhou reinforcements?" ”
Lu Zhiyu ran out of ideas, and said loudly: "Please give the order of the prince, and the last general will be the first to charge...... I just ask the prince to be merciful and add some new soldiers to my guard after ......the war. ”
Wu Zheng's heart moved, and he turned his head to look at Lu Zhiyu and said, "Dare to love, you are doing this today, just to ask this king for additions?" ”
“…… Lord Wang, Wu Songwei fought repeatedly, losing nearly half ....... ”
Wu Zheng said coldly: "As far as you Wu Songwei suffered heavy casualties, Taizhou Wei is smaller than you?" Or are Chen Sheng and Fang Guoan Corps suffering fewer casualties than you? ”
Lu Zhiyu was silent.
Looking at Lu Zhiyu's face, Wu Zheng suddenly realized one thing, that is, with the growth of his military strength, the generals in the army have already appeared a kind of sign of forming a faction, although the climate has not yet formed, but it has to be guarded against.
Wu Zheng paused, "I don't want new recruits, but ...... To take prisoners there are some, if you are quick, ...... In this Peixian county, there are many ...... who can be prisoners. ”
Lu Zhiyu listened to the first half of Wu Zheng's sentence, and his heart was cold, but the second half of the sentence made him go directly to hell to heaven.
Prisoners, that's a lot.
Lu Zhiyu's gaze at the enemy array outside the city at this time was completely different, as if those were no longer his enemies, but his soldiers.
"Smack" Wu Zheng patted the back of Lu Zhiyu's neck, "Don't be too happy too early, this is not a piece of meat, it is a bone." You see, the array is laid out with a plank and an eye, and looking at those soldiers, the spirit is also sufficient...... Don't be reluctant to shell for a while, blast them all out for me, hurt them, and naturally their morale will collapse...... Maybe you won't even have to attack the city. ”
"Yes." Lu Zhiyu didn't object now, "The last general will arrange this." ”
……。
The Northern Expeditionary Army began to press forward.
The Qing army did not move.
Continue to approach forward, a mile.
The Qing army remained unmoved.
So, the cannon rang out.
At the point where each shell lands, a cloud of fire, a cloud of smoke and dust can envelop an area of two or three feet.
However, the Qing army remained still, and there was a slight confusion among the soldiers, but the formation remained stable.
Because of the shortage of shells, Wu Zheng could only give the order to press forward to five hundred steps.
The cannons on the walls rang out, and the bed crossbows began to shoot arrows with thick legs and arms at the Northern Expeditionary Army.
Casualties began to appear.
At this time, the Tiger Squat Cannon of the Northern Expeditionary Army was able to hit the enemy, and a hundred Tiger Squat Cannons opened fire at the same time, and the billowing smoke and dust raised in front of the city gate instantly cut off the sight of both sides.
If you are in the midst of it, you will not see your fingers.
Wu Zheng quickly ordered, withdraw!
Retreat!
Race against the clock to retreat!
At this time, the Qing army moved, to be precise, the thousand enemy cavalry moved.
Chen Jin is indeed endured and has rich battlefield experience.
When Lu Zhiyu stepped forward with a team of 100 people to lure the enemy, Chen Jin didn't care at all, even if he let these 100 people rush into the formation, he was afraid that it would not be a big deal.
So, he didn't move.
But now, Chen Jin felt that the opportunity had come, a distance of 500 paces, and the light cavalry could reach it in an instant, crushing the advance of the Northern Expeditionary Army, destroying these hateful artillery, and even bringing some captures back.
So Chen Jin ordered to attack on a light horse.
If the attack of the six hundred heavy horsemen of the Feiyun Bridge is compared to the beating of a giant drum in the ears, then the charge of the thousand light horsemen is a storm.
Fast, too fast, very fast!
Of course, the "escape" posture is indeed ugly, and the soldiers even gave up the tiger squat cannon and turned around and ran, but as long as they can win, no one cares about the posture, right?
It was precisely because Chen Jin felt that the cavalry was faster than the Northern Expeditionary Army, that he could have no scruples about the Northern Expeditionary Army's use of mines again, and brazenly ordered the cavalry to attack, because of this distance, the Northern Expeditionary Army had no time to escape, that is, if he really threw down the mines, then it would be the end of the same fate.
